I’m a firm believer that healing happens in relationship. And yet, for those of us who have experienced trauma and mental health concerns, relationships that aid our healing can be few and far between. Therapy is, for many of us, where we learn to heal. When we form a healthy bond with a therapist, we grow to trust them, and slowly, ourselves and others. When we can trust ourselves and others, we can learn to live again - to come out of survival mode and into the unique beauty of our individual selves, lives and experiences. Facilitating this growth in others is what I consider to be my work, and it is my honor to do it.
